The Lumineers - Left For Denver

Capo: 1st fret

[Intro]
E A E A

[Verse 1]
E A E A
What time was it when you were only 18 years old
E A
You crossed the street, you crossed your legs
E A
You came across a little cold
B A E A E
And it was all, it was all falling apart (Falling apart)
A G#m A

[Verse 2]
E
What time, what time was it
A E A
When you were in the eighth grade?
E A
You brought the box up to the high school
E A
You spiked the Gatorade
B F#
And it was all for, for a weekend
B E
It was all, all still falling apart

[Chorus]
E A G#m A E
I didn’t say you’d be better off if you quit
A G#m A E
Everyone left ‘cause you held on longer than the rest
A
What made you leave? And when you did, you left for Denver
F# B E A
Why? What did you know that I did not?
E
That I did not?
A G#m A E

[Verse 3]
A E A
Oh, is it one, or is it two, or is it three kids now?
E A E A
They mark the time, they draw the lines around your eyelids now
B F#
And is it all still for the weekend?
B E
Is it all, all still falling apart?

[Chorus]
E A G#m A E
I didn’t say you’d be better off if you quit
A G#m A E
Everyone left ‘cause you held on longer than the rest
A
What made you leave? And when you did, you left for Denver
F# B E A
Why? What did you know that I did not?
E
That I did not?
A G#m A

[Outro]
